well get into it, right about now

so pinck! go and do it brother, you’ve got it
sink that thing, and give him a big round of applause
(say!)
yeah?
(what has he done?)
you mean you don’t know?
(uh-uh)
you know, don’t you?
(nuh-uh)
you know, cheese, doin’ the do
(doin’ the do)

(doin’ the do)
doin’ the do
(just doin’ the do)
doin’ the do
(just doin’ the do)
doin’ the do
(just doin’ the do)
doin’ the do
(just doin’ the do)

ya know, everybody in the group
we from down home, we understand, we don’t mind talkin’ about it
it’s a groove crowd
come up and here and take ya up innocent, go on back down and enjoy ourselves, ya understand?
yeah, we know where the man comin’ from
up here he’s jivin’, ya understand, we can deal with him when we see him
we’ve got one cat in the group, jasaan, he says he’s from ohio’s
yes, he says he’s from ohio’s
i don’t know but the players name is ohio’s, i know where ohio is
so you know he’s from down there ’cause he don’t even know how to say it, right trees?
give him a round of applause
i’ve gotta apologize, i don’t want ’em to gang up up on ’em when i go out there
wait a minute, so jab, where you from?
mobile jab, give him a round of applause. mobile! mobile!
say morgan, brother, i’ve gotta get all these drummers
say brother, where ya from?
(georgia)
say it again
(georgia)
now try to identify with the whole state of georgia, where you from?
(macon, georgia)
macon, georgia, give him a round of applause!
so cheese, sure got some guitar in ’em
now i hope people don’t get me confused when i say
he sure got a mother there
when we say mother we mean he bad, ya understand, i don’t know where you come from bro
but i’m sure glad you’re a soul brother, because that’s a country stroke ya got there
a cornbread lick, ya got it
a whole bunch of hoe cake on the side
now most of y’all don’t know what hoe cakes is
a hoe cakes is when you get the bread and lay it out on the road like you please
make it funky, make it funky
say cheese, like i said, if you wasn’t a brother, we’d get accused quick
“i’ll be coming around the mountain when she…”
say brother, i’d like to ask you something
and by the way, we’re recording now, live at the apollo, volume 3
so say it one more time brother, let me hear it
now you tell me, where you was born?
(la grange)
where brother?
(la grange)
la grange? la grange, where brother?
(la grange, north carolina)
yeah! la grange, north carolina!
take another bow brother! take another bow! i’m being so mean
but brother, next time, would you be so careful and don’t lay so deep in your grange
brother martin, give him another round of applause
i didn’t say lay in the gr-ss, i say your grange
say fred, this is our music and band director
sure got a strange horn there brother
i like it. black horn
(black and proud)
right on, right on
but say one thing brother, do you got a name for it, ’cause i know b.b. king named for his guitar, “lucille.” what’d you name your horn?
(i call it the soul sister)
the only thing i gotta disagree with, is it look different with no hot pants, baby
lookie here, because i want everyone to feel funky
you’re gonna get “s-x machine,” and if that don’t do ya, we’ll give you some more s-x
and if that don’t do it then, we’ll see ya later
